Chapter 666 Chapter 665
Old man Qi and old lady Tian listened to their grandchildren's words and expressions, and their faces were constantly changing with their words, and finally, they turned into a look of pride.

Being able to lead the people in one place to live a good life, their eldest son is promising.

The old man prayed to San Ying, "Are your father and mother okay?"

"Okay, sir, the Qi Family Army now has 30 people, and the entire Northwest Army has reached nearly 50. They all listen to my father alone; mother lives in the general's mansion in the city. Formed a women's army to stand up for oppressed women."

Hearing that the husband and wife are really living a good life, the old man Qi is relieved.

The brothers talked about the fun experiences they remembered one sentence at a time, and Qi Baoer and Da Lang would occasionally interject a few words, teasing the old man Qi and the old lady Tian so that the corners of their eyes never fell. .

It wasn't until seeing the tiredness in the eyes of the two elders that the brothers and sisters resigned and left, and then moved to Qi Baoer's yard.

The servants there have already prepared all the steps before the barbecue in the garden, and just wait for them to come and bake it by hand.

Maybe it's because of the strong blood relationship. Although they have been separated for several years, after getting together again, there is still no sense of strangeness between the brothers and sisters.

All my brothers don't need to be coquettish, everyone sits around the fire and chats while roasting meat or vegetables.

As the elder brother, Da Lang spoke first, he raised his wine glass and said, "You have worked hard all these years."

Then drink it up.

Two people and three people also toasted and drank.

After drinking, Er Lang raised his hand and yelled at Da Lang, "We brothers say it's boring, but the third brother and I are more comfortable in the northwest."

It's not that he didn't know the real purpose of the uncle's keeping Da Lang.

Let's put it this way, Qijia without his sister is just a rootless duckweed in this world, no matter how beautiful the surface is, it is only the surface.

The reason why the emperor reuses uncle is not because uncle is Bao'er's biological father? !
It's not that the uncle is incompetent, but that the uncle is not the only one who has the ability. Their Qi family is only from a farmer's family. How can it be worthy of the emperor's special high regard?
Isn't it because of Bo'er? !

Bao'er is absent, but as long as Bao'er's own father is present, no matter where Bao'er is, she will come back one day.

The uncle kept the eldest brother, hoping that they would not have the opportunity to become a shackle and a drag on Bao'er.

The uncle went to the northwest to find a way to take the northwest, and the eldest brother, the uncle also placed high hopes, it should be hoped that the eldest brother can enter the court, and it is best to occupy a place.

In this way, with the Northwest and the eldest brother who can speak in the court, when Bao'er comes back, their Qi family will become Bao'er's most solid backing.

Really have confidence.

It was not easy for them to go to the Northwest. At that time, the Northwest was poor and chaotic, and the people were still ignorant; but it was even more difficult for the elder brother.

Because there is an advantage in the northwest, that is, the sky is high and the emperor is far away; and the eldest brother is at the foot of the emperor, surrounded by nobles from aristocratic families, how can it be easy for the eldest brother, a young talent from a farming family, to stand out?

There are three states in the northwest. As long as the officials of these three states are controlled, the northwest will be the uncle's world.

It seems outrageous to say so, but it is true.

At that time, the uncle led 12 praying family troops, which was less than half of the original garrison in the northwest, but the combat effectiveness of each praying family army was more than twice that of the original garrison.

Er Lang smiled and said: "What the third brother said to grandma just now is not entirely true, the first thing that uncle dealt with when he went to the Northwest was actually the Northwest Army.

Several former lieutenants in the Northwest Army had a good idea. The decree was that the uncle was named the General of the Northwest and went to the northwest to lead the Northwest Army; but they planned to let the Qijia Army merge into the Northwest Army, and then emptied the uncle and let the uncle Be a famous general. "

San Lang laughed and took the words, "Is Dad the one who can do such a stupid thing? Dad led the Qi Family Army directly into the Northwest Camp, beat them all to the ground, and then arrested a few lieutenants , and check them out.”

Liu Lang: "The Northwest General in front thought the sky was high and the emperor was far away, and no one would go to the Northwest to find out, so he dared to covet the army's salary; with a general like him, how could his lieutenants be clean?!
The uncle checked it out, and sure enough, it was something terrible, even allowing his soldiers to kill Liang and take meritorious service. "

Both Qi Bao'er and Da Lang were noncommittal and did not express any opinions. It was their own father, so what could they say? !
but···
Neither of them believed that all the leaders in the former Northwest Army had problems.

Speaking of the matter of seizing one soldier and one power at the beginning, Erlang and others moved to the northwest to discuss the people's livelihood at that time.

There is something to be said.

Er Lang said how the government did nothing, even went too far.

For example, there are government offices all over the country, but the common people have nowhere to complain.

For example, the first instinct when seeing a government servant is to run.

Another example is that it is not bandits who would enter ordinary people's homes to smash, smash and rob, but government servants in poor uniforms.

Let's put it this way, the government in Northwest China at that time was like the "revolutionary committee" in Qi Baoer's special period in his previous life; for the people, there was no sense of security, but it was an existence that frightened them.

Several people in Silang talked about the bad habits among the common people.

For example, the contempt for women in the Northwest.

To what extent is it underestimated?

In the Northwest, women have absolutely no human rights. Before they get married, they belong to their parents and can be traded; after they get married, they belong to their husband's family, which can also be traded.

Unmarried women are not allowed to show their faces in public, and married women must wrap themselves like mummies if they want to go out.

If a man sees a woman's hand, that woman must marry that man, otherwise she will die, and she will not even have the chance to be a sister-in-law if her hair is twisted; because the woman's family will not allow her to live and affect the family members. other girls.

This is just a small corner of the bad habits.

Such things as marrying a dead person are very common in the Northwest.

Also, widows are not allowed to remarry, but brothers are allowed to share one wife.

"It is not difficult to seize the power of soldiers, but it is difficult to change the minds of Northwesterners."

Er Lang smiled wryly, "Even now, many of them still have the same thoughts."

Da Lang handed the roasted meat to Er Lang, took the chicken wings in his hand and continued to roast, and said, "It's not just the Northwest. I've been to many places over the years, as you mentioned. Both."

It's just that it's very sad to put them all together.

Da Lang talked about an incident that happened when he went out with Lu Qinghe a while ago, "At that time, my husband and I got separated from the big team and stayed in a small village in the mountains.

The village is surrounded by mountains and has no fields. It lives by hunting.

There are very few women in the village. My husband and I stayed there for two days, and we didn't see any women or girls in the village.

Later we learned that there were women in the village.

Those women were bought by all the people in their village together, and they were the common wives of the whole village;

People in their village felt that women were dirty and unworthy of living in the village with them; but they wanted to carry on the family line, so they built another place in the woods outside the village for them to live in.

Those women will be carried back to the village if they give birth to a boy, and they will be executed on the spot if they are a girl.

When these women are older, they will go down the mountain and continue to buy. "

Everyone: "..."

Suddenly the barbecue in my hand is not fragrant.

 I'm sorry, my dears, I had a fever last night, and I overslept on an IV today.

  Wen will change it back immediately.
